WROOT PARISH COUNCIL
ANNOUNCEMENT
COUNCIL TAX PRECEPT
Due to circumstances beyond our control, the precept for 2025/2026 and also 2026/2027 will remain at the same level as the current year 2024/2025.
Please note, this is NOT an INCREASE in the Parish Precept, it is just not possible to reduce it this year as originally hoped.
The Parish Council did everything possible to avoid this situation and very much regrets that they are unable to avoid this necessary continuation of the higher precept amount.
DECEMBER 2024
Due to unforeseen circumstances, the December meeting did not go ahead as planned. Therefore, the next meeting will be on 7th January 2025, when the November 2024 minutes will be ratified and published on this website the following day.

Maureen and Donald Taylor retire from The Village Shop and Post Office after almost 50 years of loyal service.
The Parish Council wish to thank them for such dedicated, long-standing service to the residents of Wroot.
We wish them a long and very happy well-earned retirement.
Pictured is Cllr. Angela White who presented Maureen and Don with flowers and a gift on behalf of The Parish Council.
Maureen and Don wish to thank everyone for the countless cards, gifts, and good wishes they have received. They are overwhelmed and very touched that so many people have shown their appreciation.
Sharp-eyed villagers may have already noticed the new security cameras adjacent to the village hall, which are now keeping an eye on traffic entering and exiting the village via High Street, Field Lane and Woodside Lane
These are part of a welcome upgrade for the community, which has also seen the installation of fibre broadband and WiFi into the village hall as part of the process.
The cameras, which are monitored by Woollas Security, will record events over 24 hours but will actually be live monitored after 11pm and throughout the night. Any suspicious activity seen during those hours, will be immediately logged and then called in to Humberside Police, if necessary.

The North Lincolnshire Local Plan 2020-2038 has been published and shows three potential sites for new residential housing developments in Wroot. However, out of the three areas mentioned, there is only one viable option, which is the site on Field Lane, next to St Pancras Church. The other two, within the village, are outdated proposals and totally unsuitable.
The Field Lane proposal is to build 13-15 houses, but it should be stressed at this stage that it has only been earmarked as a suitable site and no decision has yet been made that building will definitely take place there. Any future development would be subject to the planning process, so the parish council and residents will be duly informed as part of the standard procedure.
Parishioners wishing to view the plan for this site in more detail should head to the Agendas and Minutes page, where it can be found in 'Other Documents'.
A number of consultation events are to be held across North Lincolnshire, where local people can see the plan and speak to council officers. The two in our immediate area are at -
Epworth Imperial Hall: Thursday
11th November, 3.30 pm to 7.15 pm
Haxey Memorial Hall: Monday
15th November 3.00 pm to 7.00 pm
Well done to Wroot Parish Council, whose work to create a wildflower orchard has been recognised with a CPRE Environment Award.
The CPRE, formerly known as the Campaign to Protect Rural England, is an environmental charity with over 40,000 members and supporters.
The wildflower orchard has been created on a formerly neglected patch of land, at the bottom of Woodside Lane and is now open for all to enjoy.
